Why do I do this shit to myself? #FuckTrump

So, I'm giving the book three stars because I don't know what else to give it. Some of it just sounds blatantly false, most of it sounds like exactly what we would expect of Trump based on his public behavior. I'm reminded of Miss Trunchbull from [b:Matilda|39988|Matilda|Roald Dahl|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1388793265s/39988.jpg|1015554]; she's violent, crazy, and is willing to enforce insane punishments for minor infractions because the parents are less likely to believe that the Headmistress threw a child by her hair than if she gave the child a detention for something which shouldn't have required punishment at all. Is Trump a real life Trunchbull? Maybe.

Blecgh. Okay, so I read the book and want to burn it. What now? Well, I'm hopeful that we can overcome, as a country, having such a psychotic president and continue to move forward and make our world better as we have steadily been doing over the many years. (Look at the numbers - things have been getting better over time. It just takes time.)
